Hello,
I have a Macbook Core 2 Duo (
not -Pro, i.e. my MB has integrated Intel GMA 950 graphics) with OS X 10.6.5 and difficulties to get MegaGlest 3.3.7.2 running (Glest 3.2.2 is running not very fast but works fine).
First I downloaded
MegaGlest-3.3.7.2.dmg and moved the package "MegaGlest.app" from the mounted .dmg image to "/Applications".
Then I downloaded
MegaGlest.data.tgz and moved the "megaglest" folder extracted from the .tgz archive to "/Users/macuser/Library".
When I start the Game by double-clicking on "MegaGlest.app", its icon shortly appears in the dock and then immediately disappears again.
When I execute "/Applications/MegaGlest.app/Contents/MacOS/MegaGlest" from within the "MegaGlest.app" package via the terminal, I get the following error message:
bash-3.2$ ./MegaGlest

Do I have to move the "megaglest" folder etc. to another location?
Do you have any ideas what I am doing wrong?
If I need to compile it myself, what exactly do I have to do with the downloaded
OpenAL framework after unzipping?
The description in the
CompileGuideMac Wiki is not quite clear to me.
How shall I install the libraries? Via "sudo port install {lib}" or rather "sudo port install {lib}
+universal"?
Thanks for your hints and a Happy New Year 2011!
EDIT:
When I alternatively extract the contents of "megaglest" folder from the .tgz archive to "/Library/MegaGlest", I get the same error messages like above.
